Become Fluent in "Guy"

Unless you already are more successful than you ever wanted or dreamed of being, this is a MUST book for any woman, whether rookie or veteran, whose business life involves regular interaction with men. As a woman who believes herself to be relatively fluent in "guy", I found this book to be extremely helpful in confirming many of my hunches about the "appropriate" behavior in particular work situations and explaining other reactions and actions of my male colleagues and opponents that I sometimes found puzzling before. Once you understand the WHY behind what men do, responding to it and mirroring it become much easier which in turn uncomplicates my life. After reading this book and implementing what I learned in the next relevant work decision (which meant acting somewhat different than I would have previously), I was able to finally take control rather quietly over a relationship with a male colleague that had been a source of friction and general unpleasantness for some time and direct it into a more productive path for both of us.

Things My Father Always Told Me

In the interest of helping out his daughter the best he could, my father "educated" me on the strategies and thinking of men (including himself) in the business world and in general. I found this book to be amazingly close to what he had always told me and right on with my own experiences. I imagine it to be a real eye opener for those girls who didn't have the type of honest father that I did. If a woman reads this book and says to herself, "Yeah right! That can't be so," I would venture to guess that they didn't, and that they should take this book very seriously. If a man reads it and says, "That doesn't really happen," he's not in touch with reality.

Women You Have to Read This

This is perhaps the best book I have ever read about the inteaction between women and men in the workplace. When you read this book its like the light bulb has come on! Finally, a book that gives women the rules men play by.

Teaches the "secret handshake" of business.

The author directs this material at women in business, but this material is relevant to anyone who is "not part of the club". Finally, an objective look at the rules that hold outsiders outside. This is a practical, step-by-step, method for participating in a way that the power structure can understand and appreciate. I am particularly appreciative of the author's resistance to "man bash". In examples, she explains the reality and opportunity that this powerful influence creates. The pros and cons created for men and women who live by these rules is explained clearly and without judgement.
